Blacklock Shoreditch

OPENED
78 DAYS AGO

By Siobhan Gunner

Chophouse and steak staple Blacklock opens a third restaurant in Shoreditch.

Blacklock might be set in the very heart of Shoreditch, the area’s competitive dining scene is hardly a problem for these guys. I mean, their award-winning Sunday Roast has a two-month waiting list in Soho.

The Spot:

That’s one of the reasons why Blacklock needed to expand, bringing its signature chops, steaks and sought-after Sunday Roast to Shoreditch. The other reason is space for a new dedicated bar area, showcasing a brand new food menu with a bespoke cocktail list to match.

The Food:

At this exciting new bar, you can tuck into comforting delights like Yorkshire puddings with black pudding and gravy, Welsh rarebit nuggets and lamb scratchings. The restaurant focuses on Blacklock’s usual offerings, all cooked over charcoal on their famous Blacklock Foundry iron. And we haven’t even mentioned the sides yet. 10-hour ash roasted sweet potato? Yes please. Beef-dripping chips? There goes the diet.

The Drinks:

If you’re still thinking about Blacklock’s new bar, you’ll be happy to hear they’ve partnered with New York’s renowned cocktail bar Slowly Shirley. That means a standout selection of cocktails, exclusively available at this Shoreditch stunner.

The Damage:

Meaty fare varies between £4 and £18; side dishes are priced at £4. You can also go ‘all in’ for £20 a head, which gives you beef rump, Cornish lamb leg and Middlewhite pork loin (served with all the trimmings).

In a Nutshell:

With help from award-winning Cornish farmer and butcher Philip Warren, Blacklock is known for serving for top-quality meat at an affordable price. Now, their new location adds an exclusive bar area to the mix, giving us yet another reason to dine here. Oh, and Blacklock is currently on soft launch until October 6, with 50% off all food. You’re welcome.
